Overview —“ Just to make things clear right now, I’m reviewing the song and music video A Tout Le Monde from Youthanasia, not from United Abominations. So this is also the version to feature Mustaine singing by himself and not accompanied with Cristina Scabbia. I’ll admit that I’m more …

Korn is one of my all-time favorite bands, and they always know how to rocks. However, the recent loss of their guitarist is apparent since he brought a distinctive sound to any song with his loose-string playing, and it brings this CD down. My favorite song on …

Matt Nathanson’s newest album “Modern Love” is my favorite album of the year. I have never been a hardcore Matt Nathanson fan in the past. While I, like the rest of the Top 40 world, love “Car Crash” and “Come on Get Higher,” as a compilation, his latest album …
